A mesmerising, stand out for audiences and reviewers alike. Festival tents have been packed to ecstatic capacity, and beyond for Britain’s newest euphoric escapism Festival tents have been packed to ecstatic capacity and beyond for Britain’s newest and finest Shamanic purveyors of euphoric escapism. Over the last year, shows at major venues and key festivals – including with The Vaccines, Stereophonics, Jesus & Mary Chain, Blossoms, Cabbage, The Happy Mondays and Milburn - have noticeably swelled their following. April’s headline tour was a riot of sold out venues and bouncing floor boards, with music fans turned away from some shows. The band were a Glastonbury winner with a legendary DJ set (for Jagz Kooner) and a flag. Their obviously adored set was and a definite MOMENT of Reading Festival. The Shimmer Band’s growing reputation, which includes Radio1 playlisting, and support from BBC Introducing plus independent stations has made them not only a festival favourite - “a meteoric sound that consumes the tent" Clash Magazine -but also a taste makers tip of the year – most recently, England football star, Peter Crouch on his Radio X show. They’ve shimmered their way to being hot ticket headliners this Autumn. Reactions from crowds and critics alike show that something exciting is starting to explode in music. With more singles in the pipeline for this year, and an album set for Spring 2018, these Komplex Recordings Kosmonauts will soon be the new shining star in our galaxy.
